had no work today so went to cavan to do a few bits on the car, got more done than expected. I was weary bout doing rear subframe myself as i haven a clue bout mechanics but got stuck in.. took 5hrs but i was alone and hadn a clue wat i was at...
just lifted car with trucks tail lift to get height on the axle stands for more room to work

i previously asked how to remove the subframe and few lads mentioned havin to use a 32 socket on hubs but the way i done it was
remove exhaust from cat back, remove coilovers,remove arb, remove calipers and tie them up outta the way, undo diff from prop shaft, undo half shafts, drop the diff, undo the 4 nuts holding frame up and drop frame, then remove all arms and transfer hubs still attached to wishbones half shafts etc to the new sub frame
WILL THAT BE OK???
the 2 frames side by side
